Hello everyone!

I've been having some problems with my hd 7950 when i've been trying to overclock it. I right now have it a stock voltage 1125 and overclocked memory and core to 1400 and 1150 and i've never had any crashes with thoose settings. But today I tried to overclock a little bit further. I basically made the memory clock higher to 1575 and it crashed when i ran benchmark, then i made the voltage higher to 1150 and it crashed again. So my question is do i need to higher the voltage even more? Is it safe? And BTW this: [url=https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AmLKAgEko3SAdHFtby1jNTFvaTF2UHhaMzdMQ0FNM2c#gid=0]https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AmLKAgEko3SAdHFtby1jNTFvaTF2UHhaMzdMQ0FNM2c#gid=0[/url=https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AmLKAgEko3SAdHFtby1jNTFvaTF2UHhaMzdMQ0FNM2c#gid=0] Is it safe to overclock to thoose settings in the list?

1250mV on the core voltage is safe for the HD 7950/7970, so yeah it's safe, just be sure your gpu is not overheating

Ok, but how do you adjust memory voltage? I'm using MSI afterburner to overclock.

click the Down arrow beside Core Volt slider. Not all card supported tho.
